Hello all,

Hope you all are doing well.

This email is a reminder that we are hosting this month's Open Community Call tomorrow (*27 April 2025*, Sunday*)* from 6:00 pm to 7:00 pm IST with a keen focus on discussing certain Global Trends https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Wikimedia_Foundation_Annual_Plan/2025-2026/Global_Trends which have been tracked by WMF and will serve as a central focus of the different aspects of the WMF Annual Plan for 2025-2026.

While we are discussing multiple trends; during the SAOCC we are hosting a 45 min session including breakouts in which we will discuss the following trends in detail.

1.

Contributors: People participate eagerly in online spaces that provide rewarding connections. 2.

Neutrality: Struggles over neutral and verifiable information threaten access to knowledge projects and their contributors. 3.

Content and AI: Digital information that is created and verified by humans is the most valuable asset in the AI tech platform wars.

Please add the following to your respective calendars and we look forward to seeing you on the call.
